What to Expect (When You’re Not Expecting a Blog)
A blog? Really, Jess? YES, REALLY! Are you kidding?! There’s so much to share with you, friends.
In addition to sharing updates our trainings, events, and other original programming, AND some amazing guest posts, I hope this blog can become a go-to resource for you. A resource for what, you might ask? Hopefully, how to find and create humor in your everyday life AND how to apply core concepts of comedy delivery to fuel your own message and impact.
Some of the features I’m most excited about include:
#TruthInComedy: This series will highlight some of the most powerful moments in standup comedy where a comedian uses a punchline to drive home a major point about a big social issue. Hopefully you’ll see some of the comedy world’s Greatest Hits and learn about brilliant new comics, too.
#OnTheFly: Is this my pitch for an early 2000s local radio show name? Maybe. Is it also a new series on our blog to showcase great moments of improv in political speeches and/or comedy sets? Definitely.
#ComedyIRL: Hugh Grant was so close with his iconic Love Actually quote. To me, if you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that *humor* actually is all around. This series will showcase surprising and delightful moments of humor and levity we can find out in the real world. If you see something, tag us on Instagram or email hello@standupforchange.today so we can spotlight your find, too.
We might post some of this on social media, and we might keep some stuff just for the blog. Stay tuned and let me know what else you want to read about in this space!
With excitement,
Jess Agi
